This study assesses adult structural plasticity in Drosophila neurons by examining remodeling processes and introducing a tool to measure complexity without observer bias.

This paper presents a device for adapting upright light sheet fluorescence microscopy to image samples at air-liquid interface, demonstrating its use on three biological specimens.

The paper identifies non-canonical circadian oscillators in Drosophila neurons that exhibit molecular rhythms despite lacking core clock genes.

The paper examines daily structural changes in Drosophila clock neurons using SBEM, revealing rhythmic variations in morphology, synaptic markers, and mitochondrial structure.

This paper introduces a single objective light-sheet microscope for high-resolution in vivo brain imaging in Drosophila, achieving improved resolution and reduced photobleaching and phototoxicity.

This study identifies Cry+ LNd neurons as essential for the circadian control of egg-laying in Drosophila females, revealing their role through neural connectivity analysis.

The paper identifies circadian gene expression patterns in Drosophila using single-cell and bulk RNA-seq, revealing three mechanisms for generating daily gene expression rhythms.

This study shows that mating in Drosophila females disrupts their ability to anticipate the night-day transition, mediated by sex peptide acting on PPK+ neurons and affecting PDF levels.

The paper identifies the hyperpolarization-activated cation current Ih as essential for circadian and sleep behaviors in Drosophila by enabling high-frequency neuronal bursting in lateral ventral neurons.
